Is it possible to use my Canon Powershot A610 as a web cam? If so, links for drivers?

Question

I was just wondering if it's possible to use my digital camera (which has video capabilities), a Canon Powershot A610 as a web cam? I can plug it in to my computer to transfer video and images but I can't record while it's plugged in. If it came with software, I no longer have it. So does anyone have some links for drivers so my digital camera will work as a webcam? :]

Thanks.

No, you can't use it as a webcam. You will have to get a separate webcam and they can be purchased really cheaply now. I've seen them costing less than £5 (probably not very good quality) so just buy a webcam which is built for purpose.
